WAR: Samsung Continues Attack, Launches More Ads Targeted Directly at Apple iPhone [VIDEO]

Posted by Knowlton Thomas on 2012-01-24 8:00:00 AM

Samsung launched its first "Next Big Thing" commercial back in November and it was a blatant jab at Apple's iPhone. Now the smartphone manufacturer has published two more NBT commercials, both again directly dissing the iPhone.

One, a 30-second clip, is titled "We Got Samsunged." The other, one minute long, is called "Type With Your Voice." While no one else is really saying this, Samsung continues to tout the Galaxy S II as "the next big thing" that "everyone is talking about"—even though Samsung's best devices still can't outsell the two-year-old iPhone 3GS. But hey, if you repeat something enough times, somebody is bound to believe it. 

With Apple continually suing Samsung and pushing for sales bans across the globe, and Samsung focusing its marketing efforts almost entirely on staining Apple's pristine reputation, it's a wonder these two companies are still able to work so closely together—Apple uses Samsung parts in a lot of its hardware and you certainly never hear Samsung complaining about the business Apple gives it. How long can this odd mix of war and peace last?
